Carlitos Gardel

I visited Carlitos Gardel Argentine Steakhouse with four friends to celebrate a birthday, and it was an experience to remember! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance set the stage for a special evening - dimly lit, cozy, and just perfect for celebrating those special moments. Our waiter, Carter, was exceptional. He attended to our every need with a smile and made sure our evening was flawless. And let's not forget about Max, the sommelier, whose expertise in wine selection added an extra touch of class to our dining experience. Now, the food! We started with 'Papas Fritas Proveçal' - crispy and seasoned just right. The 'Burrata San Daniele' was a delight, especially the prosciutto - it was my favorite. But the real star for me was the 'Champignon Rellenos'. The combination of chorizo, eggplant, and truffled bread crumbs, topped with white truffle buttercream, was simply perfection. For our main course, we shared the 'Parrillada Argentina' - a magnificent selection of five different types of meats. It's a great choice, especially if you're sampling appetizers. We also tried the 'Tapa De Ojo' - a medium prime ribeye cooked to absolute perfection. The service was outstanding throughout our meal, making our celebration even more special. I can't recommend Carlitos Gardel Argentine Steakhouse enough. It's a must-visit for anyone looking for a delightful dining experience with friends or family. Can't wait to go back!

Unassuming from the outside, this cozy place has a well-earned Michelin star! Everyday is house-made and Delicious. We had several items off the specials list and were very happy - spinach ricotta gnocchi with creamy truffle sauce and the deconstructed Caesar salad. My husband got the rib-eye and said it was one of the better ones he'd had recently. The mascarpone cheesecake was amazing!

This place has one of the best and cleanest chimichurries I’ve had. We started off with gnocchi with truffle - delicious but not astounding. My steak was the Entraña, was was SO JUICY and TENDER. It tasted like Wagyu. My boyfriend got the Churrasco de Asadode Tira. It wasn’t as tender as Entraña but still very tender and good. I personally liked the Churrasco better because Entraña was too tender for me - it was hard to finish it because of how oily it was. (But I’m not a big Wagyu fan bc it’s more oily). Our sides were spinach and creamed corn. Ended the night with banana gelato and dulce de leche gelato. Atmosphere/vibes: dark, romantic, live accordian music playing. (Patio is more romantic) Parking: street or valet Service: great, detailed, fast

I went to Argentina for a month in 2019 and this place takes you Buenos Aires, Argentina. Opened in 1996. Got a michelin star in 2019. Family owned. The owners are the servers, and the chefs for the food and deserts. Their success is the result of quality and consistency to be able to make it from Argentina to Los Angeles. I had a parrillada, empanadas, Malbec wine and chocolate dessert. Everything was excellent. Perfect for a birthday, anniversary or a perfect ocassion.
